Does the site have a techie problem, or is it me?

I've had a lot of problems trying to log on recently. On many occasions the site doesn't seem to recognise my password and throws me out. It has taken several attempts today and when I get get in the site appeared to have a completely different format.
Is it me or my computer? My OH ran a clean-up programme on it a few days ago and I'm wondering if this has caused the problems?

Dear Primrose, this is the new look for the updated forum, quite pleasant don't you think. :)
Kind Regards, Old Herbaceous.

Hello Primrose,

The guys have been working on updating the KG forum so that it is more secure and so the board was disabled for a while to allow the work and checking to be done.

So rest assured it is not your computer.
Cheers,

Yes - I think everyone will notice they will need (for the first login) - to re-enter their password.

This is because the website itself is on a new server, and for security reasons, your browser will ask you to re-enter your password anew.
if you click the remember me option - it will carry on as before, and log you in automatically again.

Thanks for that reassurance. I'm not much of a techie so every time I suffer computer problems I tend to assume that it's me or my computer that is the culprit.
I think the new format will take a little getting used to. Guess I'm just one of those people who is quite comfortable in my cosy little rut.
